I'm pretty sure no sims in the USA exist. I was talking to a corporate operator last october and he said they were going to recurrent the next week and then it was being dismantled. As far as I know you have to go to europe now.

Mesaba sim was dismantled last June and sent over to Frankfurt or Hamburg if I remember correctly. We now have a Saab fuselage sitting in the sim bay that we use for emergency exit training!

Why do you want to train on the BAe/Avro? Nobody operates the a/c in the US anymore.

I was offered a Captain position in the Dominican Republic. It seems that they have 7 Avros-146. They told me the trainiing is in Australia, and that's because they have no Sims in the US. I was hoping they were, but well . That's for the info...

Probably snag one from an old Air Wisconsin pilot...but then again, maybe not.

Does PanAm at IAD still have the 146 sim?
